APPROVED BY MEMBERS OF THE THESI Bernard v. Burke, Chainnan George c. Hoffma~ ~ This thesis contends from the time of September 1940 to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the United States and Japan offered each no workable concessions that might have deterred war. A stalemate was finnly established between the two countries. The position ,of the Japanese nation was to expand and control "Greater East-Asia," while the position the United States held was one that claimed all nations should uphold certain basic principles of democracy, that all nations should honor the sanctity of treaties," and that they should treat neighboring countries in a friendly fashion.

    The Rise of the United States’ Airfield Empire in Latin America, North Africa, the Middle East and Southern Asia (1927-1945) How America’s Political Leaders Achieved Mastery over the Global Commons and created the “American Century” By Jonathan Ruano de la Haza June 1, 2012 Supervisor: Professor Eda Kranakis HIS 9999 T Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the PhD degree in History University of Ottawa Department of History Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies University of Ottawa © Jonathan Ruano de la Haza, Ottawa, Canada, 2012 i Abstract The Rise of the United States’ Airfield Empire in Latin America, North Africa, the Middle East and Southern Asia (1927-1945): How America’s Political Leaders Achieved Mastery over the Global Commons and created the “American Century” Jonathan Ruano 2012 Professor Eda Kranakis Since the Second World War, the United States has mastered the global commons (the airspace and the sea lanes) with an empire of bases that encircled the earth. These U.S. military bases have not only supported military operations, but were also the foundations for American hegemony. U.S. military bases were key tools of economic domination and globalization, since their purpose was to insure that American corporations enjoyed privileged access to the world’s markets, raw materials and cheap labor. This dissertation seeks to explain the origins of the United States’ base empire, with the main focus being on its overseas aerial infrastructure. By the 1920s, Washington policymakers navigated through the currents of anti-imperialism and pacifism to create an empire that consisted of military bases, but also commercial airfields that could be converted to military use.

  • Interview with Max Waldo Bishop
    Library of Congress Interview with Max Waldo Bishop The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Affairs Oral History Project AMBASSADOR MAX WALDO BISHOP Interviewed by: Thomas F. Conlon Initial interview date: February 26, 1993 Copyright 1998 ADST Q: Ambassador, would you describe briefly your background, your birthplace and education? BISHOP: Oh, yes, I'd be very happy to. I was born in Gravette, Arkansas, Benton County, in the Northwest corner of Arkansas, on October 30, 1908. I was born in my grandparents' home in Gravette, which was actually quite a prosperous town at that time, I gather. However, I never lived 12 consecutive months in Arkansas till after I retired from the Foreign Service. My home at that time was principally Kansas City, Kansas. We moved quite a bit—up to the Dakota's, I gather. My brother, who is three and one-half years older than I, has told me that we have a lot of pictures of my early youth.Probably the best place to start, as far as my early education is concerned, is in Kansas City. We lived on North Seventh St. in Kansas City, Kansas, and I attended the Lincoln Elementary School. We lived there until I was seven or eight years old. My mother was a graduate, surgical nurse. Of course, she had to travel quite a bit because she graduated from—was there a St. Joseph's Hospital in Chicago? Q: I'm not familiar with it.

  • “Hump” Airlift and Sino-Us Strategy in World War Ii
    KEEPING CHINA IN THE WAR: THE TRANS-HIMALAYAN “HUMP” AIRLIFT AND SINO-US STRATEGY IN WORLD WAR II DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By John D. Plating, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor John F. Guilmartin, Jr., Adviser Professor Allan R. Millett _____________________________ Professor Christopher A. Reed Adviser Graduate Program in History ABSTRACT The trans-Himalayan airlift of World War II, better known as the “Hump,” is recognized among specialists as the first sustained and most ambitious combat airlift operation in modern history. Cobbled together with only a handful of airplanes and aircrews in early 1942, the operation grew to become the ultimate expression of the US government’s commitment to China, in the end delivering nearly 740,000 tons of cargo. This was no small feat, either, as the US Army Air Forces’ aircraft flew in what is arguably the world’s worst weather system and over its most rugged terrain, all the while under the threat of enemy attack. The thesis of this dissertation is that the Hump airlift was initially started to serve as a display of American support for its Chinese ally who had been at war with Japan since 1937. However, by the start of 1944, with the airlift’s capability gaining momentum, American strategists set aside concerns for the ephemeral concept of Chinese national will and used the airlift as the primary means of supplying American forces in China in preparation for the US’s final assault on Japan.
